Whoops. Ferrari Movie Car Crashes in NYC

I saw that earlier. Not good.

 

Considering the injuries to the two extras, "woops" is not a word I would use. That shoot just got real expensive.

 

WOW...that was just plain careless. I hope nobody was seriously injured. They person under the light pole looked to be in pain.

 

Who was driving/ what movie was this for?

 

They're actors. They're really good at that.

 

It was a stunt driver from a new nicolas cage film called The Sorcerer's Apprentice according to jalopnik

Guy under the pole doesn't look good.

 

Maybe they'll get free passes to opening night...

 

Is anyone else tired of Nicolas Cage and his movies?

CW

 

ouch. poor car.

lol...is that bad that i say poor car instead of poor people? lol...

 

One injured was not an extra or associated in any way.

She'll get a lot more than a free pass before its over.

Neither injured was hurt too badly, so we can all feel less guilty about laughing.

 

the driver was Massa.
the guy under the pole doesnt look good

 

ouch..

 

c'mon

 

That's gonna hurt someone's pocket....

 

Whoever insured them.

 

That's the end of any chase scene being filmed on location in Times Square-- if not all of NYC. Terribly bad publicity..

 

I didn't laugh. That was pretty horrifying.

Good that they'll be OK.

 

I hope this is not a repost.

a stunt driver lost control on wet roads and crashed a f430 into the sidewalk injuring two pedestrians who were not part of the movie.

i shall refrain from commenting on driver skill etc because talk is CHEAP. having recognized that, i would have held it HAHAa (kidding)

Stunt driver or not, that looked like an accident waiting to happen IMO. Sometimes the roads are just too slippery. . .

Glad everyone was okay.

 

As someone stated in another thread re: this crash, they most likely had water trucks come and spray down the road in front of the shoot as when you're filming, if you don't water down the pavement, it appears gray.

 

I don't get it, they pull those maneuvers yet it wasn't a closed set!?

 

sounds like lawsuit time to me!

 

The driver is shifting weight left and right, you can just see it coming. Never should this be done unless it is a 4WD, or you have a pre-planned spin zone with escape area. That last zigzag was way too large with the throttle full on like that.
